Canadian International Politicians

by

James Bredin

Canada is cursed by status quo politicians,
Who have no appreciation for our conditions,
As they travel the world at taxpayers’ expense,
It helps if they are stupid and a little dense.

They have their own socialist hidden agenda,
Love to make speeches from a tropical hacienda,
Sound bites sent back to those who voted for them,
Saying nothing about nobody and they never condemn.

No emotion, no feelings and no plans to improve,
And those adscam allegation they’ll just have to prove,
Ransom money sent to Quebec four times a year,
They’ve been doing it for years so there’s no need to fear.

No referendums or callback will ever be allowed,
No term limits or constitutional change for this crowd,
Proportional representation will not be permitted,
And those who suggest it should all be committed.

They just want to stay in power forever and a day,
Appoint friends to the Supreme Court to our dismay,
Who change all the laws in the land without question,
Like they read the Charter and went into depression.
